Emotionless

Chapter 74, In the End

A/N: This is completely random, so you may skip this if you want, today when I was refilling my water bottle in school I sniffed it (because I do that with everything I'm about to swallow) and it smelled purely of chlorine. It tasted like water but it smelled just like Chlorine so I promptly threw it away. Heads up school kiddies, your school may just be trying to poison you!

Lucy's Pov

After I had said that: It was at that moment Dontrell laughed that something deep inside me snapped, like a thread that had finally noticed it was on fire. Before I could something reckless though Kei's voice filled my head, and I hesitated. If I was going to defeat Dontrell I was going to do it right. I'm not like Natsu or Erza, I can't act on my rage or whatever this is I'm feeling. Maybe I'm more like Gray, fighting with compassion for another.

Gold light appeared beneath my feet as I pushed my magic in my leg and arm muscles. I would need real muscle for power but for now the magic would sustain for speed.

We launched at each other, our soles colliding against each other before we followed up with our opposite legs only for our knees to collide. I flipped over in the air before using more magic on the air to allow me to do a forward handstand as though on a flat surface, the back of my ankles hitting Dontrell's shoulder.

He grabbed my leg and threw me over his shoulder before slamming his heel into my stomach until we hit the ground. He jumped away from me just as golden transparent hands appeared from the ground reaching for him. I smiled and used the hands to lift me to my feet before forming an aura longsword in my hands.

"Where's your magic?" I taunted as I leapt through the air ready to slice him vertically in half.

The sword suddenly sliced through his flesh like butter and I watched in fascination as Dontrell glitches before disappearing. "Don't you see?" Hot breath whispered against my ear. I turned around to be met with Dontrell's piercing eyes and couldn't react in time for the upper cut to my chin, a knee to the stomach, and my legs finally swept beneath me.

"I'm nowhere and everywhere at once," He said as he disappeared only to reappear with identical triplets.

He reminded me of Gemini, their duplication magic.

They disappeared again and suddenly I was struck in the side by an iron fist, followed by a kick and I couldn't even see the attacker. I grunted and threw a blind shot to the side only to find my chin smacking the dust while dirt filled my nose.

Suddenly I was being picked up and then the next thing I was airborne. My eyes rolled back as my head lowered and the last thing I saw was a heel slamming into my chin before I face-planted once again into the dust.

"Is this all you got?" He asked, his breathe shivering onto my skin. I clenched my jaw in anger staring up at him before I swung a fist up, his head just barely moving out of the way in time but his reaction gave me the second I needed to flip forward back on my feet although when I looked up he was once again gone.

"And I thought Fairy Tail mages were supposed to be legendary," Dontrell laughed, multiplying by dozens causing his laugh to ring in my ears and echo in the distance.

I grit my teeth, nostrils flaring before flipped my hair back and quickly put it in a messy bun not in the mood to have my hair slapping me in the face as I practically danced away all of his attacks like we were in some sort of Kung-Fu dance off.

"Legendary or not I will defeat you," I say angrily, ignoring how that sounded. He roared in laughter and mocked me as he clutched his stomach. "Big words for the one who hasn't even gotten a scratch on me!"

"There will be more than a scratch when I'm done with you!"

Normal Pov

"Alright Lucy, it's time to get serious." The blonde whispered under her breath. She closed her eyes ignoring as Dontrell multiplied himself in numbers surrounding her. Each of them were grinning at her, confident enough to leave her to the first attack while they idly multiplied and spit on the ground, punched each other's knuckles, cracked their necks, or sharpened the weapons in their hands.

"Fairy Tail... I will not fail you again," Lucy thought to herself before her eyes snapped open revealing pitch black eyes as her soulless eyes were activated and the double-gangers around her lit up in red their magic all the same except for one which was practically pulsing in power it was so intense. This, Lucy knew was the real Dontrell but getting to him was going to be difficult.

But not impossible.

Black wisps of magic suddenly surrounded around her feet before she was slowly lifted a few inches off the ground as her Black Surf materialized. Gold aura hands slowly appeared from her back, reaching out in a threatening manner while a golden aura enveloped her body creating long glowing gold claws above her knuckles followed by jagged golden blades at her elbow and around her neck promising pain to anything that was pushed against it. Lucy felt adrenaline rush through her body like she had just swallowed liquid magma and it was lighting her up like a firecracker ready to light the world. She felt invincible - untouchable.

Gold wisps slithered out from the ground and floated in the air around her, giving her the ability to fight in the sky as though she could walk on it and in a flash of speed there she was spinning like a drill as she flew towards the wave of enemies causing them to burst into magic the moment she touched them. Her golden aura fists slammed unto the ground causing a miniature earthquake shaking countless Dontrell copies off their feet before more golden hands reached up from the cracks and pulled them in only for the cracks to slam closed afterwards.

Outnumbered she was but overpowered Lucy was not.

At least that's what she thought until solid hands suddenly grabbed her by the shirt and tossed her to the side, her back hitting the ground hard but having felt nothing of the sort of pain expected Lucy jumped right back up Black Surf gone but golden claws swinging madly as she dealt both attacks and defenses against the many Dontrells striking at her with precision.

Knives and daggers sliced into her skin lightly but Lucy just kept on going, taking out one only to be replaced by another.

"Fuck," Lucy gasped when the oxygen was knocked out of her by a good punch.

"This all you got after that speech and show you put on?" Dontrell asked, delivering a strike to her abdomen followed by a second strike by another Dontrell.

"No," Lucy growled claws replaced by golden swords before she leapt at the real Dontrell only to be carelessly thrown over him causing her to slam against the earth once again. She felt his foot press against her torso and looked up to see him frowning at her. "Honestly I expected more out of you... but then again maybe my men were just weak."

He pressed down harder on her torso as Lucy struggled beneath his weight. "After all I've taken out all this time to fight you when I could be handling Elizabeth right about now. Such a disappointment to have to waste all my time for you... someone so, weak."

Without so much a thought Lucy's eyes lit up an icy blue before her body was enveloped in the same colored flames forcing Dontrell to jump away.

"That's it." Dontrell teased, and suddenly all his double-gangers vanished.

Lucy suddenly dropped on one elbow as she was pushing herself up causing Dontrell to let out a chuckle while saying "Don't push yourself sweetheart."

"Tch!" Once Lucy was on her feet she let out a breath and suddenly the golden claws and hands vanished while the cloak was dyed blue and seemed to sink into her skin.

"I've only just begun," Lucy said before she launched into the air along with Dontrell, her foot colliding against his chin causing him to stumble back a few steps only to be forced to quickly block her next side by side kicks and punches so fast it had become a blur until Dontrell was falling this time being the first to hit the dust.

Lucy was suddenly in front of him, grabbing him by the neck as blue aura wings sprouted from her back and the two were launched into the air.

"I won't lose anymore," Lucy said when she finally stopped flying, the two mere dots from the ground looking up.

Dontrell stared at her with his dark eyes, his expression neutral as he said, "Yet you always have in the end, Lucy Heartifilia."

Lucy's eyes widened and her thoughts raced as she tried to think of a reason why he knew her name let alone her full name, precisely her last name.

Lucy Heartifilia

And then, she let go. Watching as Dontrell fell gracefully to the ground below while her expression was blank even when the loud crack hit the ground and the land went silent. Slowly and silently she lowered herself to the ground until she was standing in front of Dontrell's body.

"This is not the end," Lucy whispered to his body before she turned around and began to walk away.

"It is for you," a chilling voice said behind her causing her to spin around only to see Dontrell's body remaining limp on the ground. She shook her head and turned back around only to stumble back a few steps when her eyes met Dontrell's own who was still very much alive. She couldn't help but glance back and watched as the body of Dontrell glitches before disappearing before slowly looking back at Dontrell who was smirking at her and said,

"You're not the only one with the soul of a dragon, Lucy."
